Thankfulness

There are many things in this life that I have to be thankful for, my children, my family, my farm, my animals and living in a wonderful country.  (to name a few!)  This past Easter weekend was one of those experiences with which I will always be thankful.  My cousin invited us to enjoy Easter Sunday with their family at their hunt camp for an old fashioned Easter.  We met at noon and enjoyed the afternoon and evening with no cell phones, tv's, video games or even electricity and plumbing. 

All we had to do was look at the spectacular view and our breath was gone.  What a beautiful lake and wilderness.  My mom and dad are on the dock looking out over the water.

The wee ones were busy playing with their cousins and uncle.  Their was no toys or electricity but yet they were never bored.  They played the entire day with just them, there other cousins and their surroundings.

The cabin itself was spectacular and was built mostly by the hands of my cousin-in-laws father.  He was definitely a very talented man.

It is still fairly chilly up here and so we had to get the fire going right away.  What a beautiful fireplace to sit around and catch up with family, no one was complaining that day.

Well except maybe Seth when he fell into one of the puddles and had to get a change of clothes!

My grandmother was also there (90 years old!) and had a great day as well.

How could you not enjoy such a beautiful, quiet, inspirational place?  Even the dog seemed a little more relaxed and rejuvenated after the day.

This is an Easter that I will always remember and be thankful for.  What was your Easter like?
